[9:06] <daniel_> good morning to everybody!
[9:07] <emilis_info> :)
[9:07] <daniel_> is there a special reason why HopObject.getOrderedView() is in 1.6.x but not anymore in 1.7 (trunk)?
[9:13] <daniel_> I'll simply re-implement it in JS, which gives me the possibility to use a variety of comparators and search algorithms, but am still wondering where it is gone and why ;-)
[9:14] <oberhamsi> daniel_: afair getorderedview was obsolute now that we have programmatic collections
[9:15] <daniel_> I wouldn't agree on both being the same and thus one replacing the other, especially as the programmatic collections use a different syntax and break backwards compatibility.
[9:16] <daniel_> But if this is the reason, at least my curiosity is handled by your answer :-)
[9:17] <daniel_> Do you know of any JS function replacing HopObject.getOrderedView() by making use of programmatic collections?
[9:20] <oberhamsi> nope, sorry
[9:26] <oberhamsi> daniel_: just found reasoning behind getorderedview removable here http://groups.google.com/group/helma/browse_thread/thread/2e3adaeebd821d38/a0fdfecb6731ffeb?lnk=gst&q=getorderedview#a0fdfecb6731ffeb
[9:35] <daniel_> thanks for providing the link, somehow I was unable to find it yesterday when looking myself - now everything is clear.
[9:36] <daniel_> and I do agree that using HopObject.list() and then sorting however one likes to sort is satisfactory.
